Family and friends, we are facing an unimaginable loss. On December 15, 2025, our beloved Izaiah Taylor tragically lost his life in a house fire in Stone Mountain, Georgia In our family home.

Izaiah was a 21-year-old college football player, a bright, kind-hearted young man with a promising future. He was a gentle giant who touched the lives of everyone he met with his kindness and humility. He graduated from South Gwinnett High School and later attended Liberty University as an Offensive Tackle, before transferring to Georgia Military College earlier this year, in Milledgeville GA.

Izaiah was home for the holidays, at his grandfather's home, where he grew up, when tragedy struck. We are grieving the loss of a beautiful young life, a loss that words can never fully express.

This sudden tragedy has left our family devastated and facing unexpected expenses. We want to give Izaiah the beautiful farewell he deserves, but we need your help to make that possible. We are asking for your support to help ease the burden. Any contribution, no matter the size, will help during this painful time. If you are unable to give, sharing this message and keeping the family in your thoughts and prayers is deeply appreciated.

With grateful hearts, thank you for your love, prayers, and support.

Shevonne & Carlinton Taylor
